What people are saying about Calm Canines

 
“Shannon is the absolute best! Literally the best kept secret in the Dog (Pet) Sitting world, although not for long! We are so very grateful to have her take care of our fur babies. She is dedicated to ensuring the health and safety of pets and goes above and beyond to make sure she and the pets are ready for her stay!"

"Shannon first pet sat for our two Labrador retrievers while we were away out of the country. Our Moose was very senior, and our Asher is three going on one!! Needless to say, her hands were full of attention needing to be given to both in very different ways. Given Moose’s health we had many medications and a laundry list of what to do given his unique personality. Not to mention keeping Asher at bay as he also has a unique set of challenges. She was so wonderful with them, and they loved her staying!"

 "Our second visit, also while we were out of the country, was once Moose passed so it was all attention on Asher! They had a ball! Asher is a handful, and Shannon is so great at understanding the uniqueness and working with him so that all are safe and sound! The best was walking into the smell of lovely fresh baked goods, only they were not for us but for Asher!!! Albeit human grade!! It was such a thoughtful touch as Asher enjoyed them even after their visit ended."

We are so grateful for Shannon! Highly recommend her to any pet parent out there!”

“Shannon has cared for my cats Max and Emma, on several occasions while I’ve been out of the country on vacation. She is a superb communicator, texting me twice daily with accompanying photos and videos of my very obviously well cared for cats, which reassured me greatly.  Max loved being brushed while on her knee, purring contentedly. Emma was very vocal in enjoying her company!”   I have no hesitation in recommending Shannon for any pet care people require!”

“We cannot recommend Calm Canines enough! Shannon stayed in our home and cared for our two dogs, an elderly dog and a new puppy, each with their own unique needs, and she handled both beautifully. She sent daily updates and photos, which gave us complete peace of mind. When we got home, our dogs were calm and relaxed, which never happens after a boarding facility stay.  We didn't worry about our dogs or home once while we were away. Both of our dogs loved Shannon, and we will absolutely be booking her again!

"Shannon is absolutely incredible. She is my little dog, Zoe’s, favorite friend who stops by to take her for walks and give her cuddles. I think Zoe’s walks with Shannon are truly the highlight of her day when I am away at work! 

Shannon has an incredibly calm and comforting aura and makes my shy, rescue dog feel safe, cared for, and loved. When I went on vacation for five days, I had no fear leaving Zoe with Shannon. I knew she was in great hands. I can’t recommend Shannon enough!"

" Shannon has been an incredible connection for us when we adopted our dog from the shelter. Her report from fostering was very helpful for the transition and our pup, Elly, truly loves Shannon. We continue to have Shannon take Elly for hikes when we have long workdays, and it is so great to know she is in good hands. Shannon knows how to handle our high energy, super smarty dog with some anxiety."

" My dog (husky) has been cared for overnight, as well as had several hikes with Shannon at Calm Canines. She is responsible, calm, prepared and trustworthy. The dog gets very excited when she sees her harness come out and I tell her she’s going hiking.  I am happy to know she’s running in the mountains with someone I can trust to bring her home safely. I highly recommend her services!"

  "Care you can trust, love your dog can feel!”

"Shannon with Calm Canines is simply the best! She has a gift of understanding our pets needs and genuinely loves each one as her own! My German Shorthaired Pointer Cooper adores her and does a tail wagging happy dance when she arrives!
She took amazing care of Cooper, keeping me updated with photos & text messages daily about his day! I felt completely at ease knowing my pup was not only safe but also happy, loved and having fun!

Shannon is reliable, professional and truly goes above and beyond; from making sure feeding times are perfect to long walks and couch cuddles! It is such a relief to have someone I can fully trust with my pup! If you are looking for a caring, responsible and passionate dog sitter (friend), look no further!
